Putting the car inside
Last night the car was in the garage. Our garage. I use the because we only have one car and one garage. A pedantic point I suppose. Anyhow I heard the adventure being recounted to a friend and I learned that our car was in the bat cave. We have no bats that I know of not even one for baseball. But it means that the car has probably become the Batmobile. And by extrapolation she who drives must think of herself as Batwoman. I think you can see how this is getting more complex as we go. Anyhow we learned that the car leaves no fumes behind when it goes out. Something about that hybrid status that we pay no attention to until something like this is presented as one of the reasons why we went to a big batter in the bottom. We do not have an electric car. Neither does batman as far as I know. The garage has been there for 10 years and it has been used until quite recently as necessary storage space. For all items not permitted in the house. This summer a decision was made to window our holdings. We lost a lot of junk along the way i think. And now we’re getting set for the new adventure of parking inside for the winter. No need just yet because we have not been given our baptism of snow but that too will happen soon. In fact the tires should be swapped this week. Something that will definitely set off the snow must fall now system. It is strange to open the garage door and see a car inside. Quite novel. Even bringing in the groceries meant we had to try new ways of doing things. This is proof that life evolves I guess. Meanwhile I watched a video of some poor guy walking along the road. Apparently he tries to do 20 miles or more a day and all I could think is that at some point he is going to learn that mankind has developed better ways of getting from point A to point B. Bicycles, cars, trains, airplanes. No need to wear holes in your socks to get from here to there. My father used to know how to darn socks which is one of those skills that probably served him well back in the days of living in the country without a car.
